That just makes me sad. The reactor is perhaps one of the most interesting palces to me in Tyria and has so much potential within it. As someone said before we’ve now reached a point where we might as well jsut explain everything with “oh scarlet did it…”.
That’s not just sad for the fact that as many will point out diminishes the potential of the story of Tyria, the Asura(Which to me already feel like just petty plot devices), and the lore founding many events; It’s sad too in the fact that said character who is supposed to be this grandiose villain is nothing more than a Saturday morning cartoon villain. Dare I say too that she doesn’t even come close to being as good as even those. She is static, uninteresting, shallow, and underdeveloped character that comes off as a “kitten what do we write!?” rush job. You can do better than this Anet, much better.
When people see Scarlet they go “ugh this chick again…” That should be a red flag to you that this is some bad writing when even the Sylvari loving players have had enough of her. I could spout on further, but I feel like the voices are booming loud enough for you to understand how bad a “story” this is. I will say one thing though, if she even remotely touches Wintersday I can guarantee that will be a breaking point for people that haven’t already flipped their tables over this.
